Hi, Not holding my breath. Sanuk!

Hi, Fully agree with Stick on this one. Without being able to speak Thai, I would never have been able to integrate into the family as well as I have now. I am 'uncle' to my nephews and nieces, not 'the farang'. It also gives you a distinct advantage in the job market, as - even though they usually have a uni degree - the vast majority of Thai office workers are totally uncomfortable in English. When I started my current job, the very first thing my staff asked was "Can he speak Thai?". They now pretty much exclusively speak Thai to me, same goes for the majority of my Thai colleagues. One of them actually asked me to speak at her wedding a few days back (I declined as I would be mortified speaking in front of 300-400 strangers ). Been here 20+ years and never had a negative experience due to speaking Thai. Sanuk!

What's A 'src='http://board.nanaplaza.com/images/jaidee.gif'>?
khunsanuk replied to Fiery Jack's topic in General discussion
Hi, The title issue was probably caused by the software upgrade. Signatures were actually turned off (have turned them on). You can change them by clicking on your username (in the top right of the screen) and selecting Account Settings. You will then see a menu item called Signature in the menu on the left. Sanuk! -

Briton faces jail for spraying 'Scouser Lee' on Thai gate
khunsanuk replied to Flashermac's topic in News
Hi, "They will face no more than 10 years' jail [and/or] a fine of no more than a million baht (about £23,555)," What the fuck is wrong with Thai penalties? Certainly the kid deserves to be penalized, but 10 years in prison for spraying some paint? Yet the penalty for driving without a license and killing 9 people is only 100 hours of community service.

Hi, No clue about accident insurance but I use health insurance from Aetna (formerly Bupa). I've got the 2nd tier coverage for in patient care only (i.e. I need to be admitted in order for the insurance to cover the procedure). This costs about 14K/year. Cost is based on age. Sanuk!

Rohingya crisis: Myanmar leader Suu Kyi 'should have resigned'
khunsanuk replied to Flashermac's topic in Non-Thailand News
Hi, " I apologise for posting in a thread and for not posting about Thailand or bizarro porn. There... that should keep my detractors happy. " We get it. You can stop adding this to every post now. Sanuk! -
Hi, "One struggling debtor, Rosukon Chakkrapongwan, fears she may lose her house as she struggles to keep up payments on a 4-million-baht home loan she took up three years ago. "It was not a problem two years ago. But this year, business is very bad as people don't spend," said the 44-year-old trader, who earns 30,000 baht a month selling cosmetics. More than half of that goes towards paying off her debt." You bought a 4M Baht home while making 30K Baht/month? Why the fuck did you think that would work out? And what fucking bank employee signed off on that? But of course foreigners have to put 50% down in cash when buying a house. Sanuk!

Hi, Would be nice if we could just deport these assholes back to their home country. And send them the bill for the ticket of course. Sanuk!

Hi, Prudes I've seen commercials on Dutch national TV which showed a lot more nudity than that. Sanuk! -

Hi, Looks like there are people who are experiencing problems logging into the board after the upgrade. The likely reason for this is that we had to change from using the username to the display name during the upgrade. So, if your username and display name are not the same, you will now need to use your display name to login. You can also use the email address linked to the account to login. The display name is the name which shows up next to your posts, i.e. this one: Sanuk!

Hi, Just found out that we can have 'Questions' forums. Might be useful to keep a list of common questions / answers. Thoughts? Sanuk!
